error reading high resolution videos

[identidata]

I am getting some runtime errors with high resolution videos. Code I am using is:

videogen = skvideo.io.vread('video.avi')

And what I get is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sk_video-1.1.8-py2.7.egg/skvideo/io/io.py", line 148, in vread

I tested scikit-video with up to 4k resolution. What resolutions are you loading?

apologies for the delay, it is not that much:

(u'@height', u'1280'), (u'@coded_width', u'720')

but I still get the error thread above.`

Alright, it's probably not related to resolution, but it is a problem I have never encountered with my videos. Care to link me to a problem file? My email is tgoodall@utexas.edu

hi Tom, yes of course - I have sent videos before (alejandro@identidata.io)
